CaddPro’s partnership with Bentley Systems has deep roots, with the company using Bentley solutions for many years. The founder of CaddPro, Adam Lambert, who develops programs using Visual Basic, has always been interested in customizing software to make it more efficient and faster. Over the past 10 to 15 years, he has been an active member of the Bentley Developer Network, a Bentley community that provides support and inspires new developments to solve complex engineering problems. “It’s essential to me and it really gives me a great business model to work with”, comments Adam.
CaddPro’s philosophy has always been focused on finding solutions that others cannot identify, with a particular focus on automating complex geometric problems. Bentley solutions, particularly MicroStation, OpenRoads, OpenBuildings, and OpenRail, have played a crucial role in this innovative approach.
With that, CaddPro specializes in providing tools that meet the specific needs of its clients, particularly large engineering consultancies facing challenges in productivity and design. One notable example of this is the work developed for bridge design.
In Australia, bridge design presents particularities compared to other countries, such as the use of T-beams (T-shaped beams), which are prestressed. These beams can undergo deformations over time, an important factor to be considered during the design process. The tools developed by CaddPro address these issues accurately, considering the complexity of the structures and the specific requirements of the Australian market.
“The key area is my software is to do with bridge geometry design. So, this program is widely used in Australia and because of the particular type of beams we tend to use over there”, reinforces Adam.
These programs are widely used by engineers in Australia, particularly for automating geometric problems that are particularly challenging in bridge construction. CaddPro’s software allows engineers to improve their productivity when dealing with complex geometry more efficiently, using the integrated features within Bentley tools.
Persistent Teamwork To Complement Bentley Solutions
The partnership with Bentley goes beyond just using the tools; it also involves close collaboration between CaddPro and Bentley’s team. The founder of CaddPro shares that over the years, he has established strong relationships with many Bentley team members, with whom he maintains regular contact. These professionals not only provide feedback on how to improve CaddPro’s products but also collaborate in finding ways to complement Bentley’s solutions, always aiming to improve the customer experience.
This collaboration is key to ensuring that the solutions developed by CaddPro align perfectly with Bentley tools, creating an integrated ecosystem that offers users complete and efficient solutions. “They’re always feeding me information about how I could compliment what Bentley is doing”, says Adam.
